Is the ride worth doing from there to New Paltz? It's only about 20 miles from what I see, but I like to stop and "explore" along the way. I'd be driving from Long Island, so the number of daylight hours with a reasonable temperature will be limited, too. I have already done the Walkway Over The Hudson and I've been to Poughkeepsie and New Paltz many times, so if those are the only places worth stopping/seeing, I might reconsider.
